It's not like I refuse to post because old cliques aren't here. u___u
It's just dead here. and the reason I haven't been posting is because I take 3 AP classes(one is Economics which I am terrible at), have to apply for college and am still trying to figure out how the hell to pay for
college. Plus I have other things going in my life. friends,guys,the need to find a job. I'm sorry that this forum isn't my top priority or even something I remember, but it isn't unusual for me forget things.
especially things I haven't done in a while like post on this website...
Also, I no longer have the Sims games to play on. I can't pull out my brother's Xbox and play it on there. None of the computers in my house support the Sims 2 or Sims 3, and truthfully I am waiting to get my own laptop for college so that way I'll be able to buy a laptop that supports TS3 and the future expansion packs that I plan to acquire. I don't have the game therefore I don't feel as if I should come on here.
Being on here is no different than me going back to my old friends in the real world. Yeah I could talk to them, but I would feel weird and awkward because I've moved on and made some new friends. It has nothing to do with me not wanting to post things. It has to do with I'm just getting busier as the years go by.

If all of what you say is true (moved on, not interested in the Sims, etc), why have you been visiting here regularly? I'm sorry, but the info on your profile doesn't lie when it says your last log in date is always within the last 24 to 48 hours?

As for the "no longer having the Sims to play on" excuse, come on now, how many times did you Ahmed, Bambi, Bobert, Cassie, Phoebe, Steven etc actually ever discuss the Sims anyway? The first week after an expansion pack and that's it judging by past posts in the archives! Despite the name this was never exactly known as being a Sims purists forum in any respect, which is one of the best things about it in my opinion.

If you've moved on and made new friends like you claim why are you back here, or more to the point why does that sociability not appear to extent to at least a "hello" with BreeBree711, Cororon, Ollie, Paul or I that are posting here? If the place is dead, not even bothering to make a quick hello post saying how you are and what you're up to is hardly going to solve it, is it?

No [removed], you're coming in here looking ONLY for the "old" members and sticking your nose in the air towards those of that are trying to keep this place alive daily: hence your earlier post on this thread saying:

You were keen enough at the idea of revival when Majick posted about, weren't you? So what's the problem with doing it with the rest of us, other than being stand-offish?

I've said it before, and I'll say it again. If you and the others skulking in the shadows want the "old people" to come back, how about giving them a reason - like posting?

Or you could try being a little more sociable with those of you that are here every day instead of being cliquey and ignoring us for not being "old school" enough. It's ridiculous.

I'm sorry if I sound cross, but I'm fed up with this hidebound attitude from those that would sooner see SF die than revive if that means "strangers" being in it. I'm fed up seeing certain names appearing as online or having been in here the last 24 hours and not bothering to post ever because it isn't the "old crowd" here. For effs sake, how will these people cope when they join the world of work and find people leaving and new people arriving at their workplace regularly? Throw themselves out of the windows wailing "I can't take it anymore now Bexi from accounts has left, goodbye cruel world!"???



STOP LURKING AND RESTART POSTING DAMMIT, WE DON'T BITE! (Apart from Cororon, and that's only if you are a slimy towel!)
